Goat Milk Butter

A friend of mine is supplying us with fresh goats milk. My dd ZaraLayna is lactose intolerant so the goats milk is truly for her. She can digest goats milk and she loves it! I love seeing her smile with a creamy milk moustache..

Yesterday my dd Morgan-Britney and I made goat milk butter together. It was the first time we have made butter with goats milk. It turned out great! It's a creamy white color and ZaraLayna said it's yummy too!

The goat milk and the cream we separated from it in the container with the green lid.

  After we whipped it in the mixer we put it in the here to strain all the buttermilk out of it. You turn the butter over and over and press again and again until the buttermilk is all out of the butter..

You can see all the liquid in it..the buttermilk..

After much pressing and turning..the creamy white goat milk butter..

and here is the buttermilk...

Our next step in this journey is cheese making..goat milk cheese!

  1. Oh that sounds lovely! I tried goats milk and goat cheese and it turns out that none of us girls can have it! Gives us the worst tummy aches! We can, however, have feta which is sheep cheese.

  2. How good for ZL! I don't like goat's milk myself, but I bet you had fun making the butter.

  3. That's great! I love to make butter...but I still have horrible memories of goat milk from my childhood...can't stomach it at all! How does it taste?
